Evans and Roche made a promise to each other to get in shape. They significantly changed their diet, giving up all convenience foods. Evans started buying more vegetables and gave up the habit of preparing meals several days in advance. In addition, she and her husband replaced potatoes with yams and rice with cauliflower. According to the woman, the first month wasn’t easy, but the food was delicious and they didn’t feel hungry or averse to healthy food. As a result, both Roche and Evans managed to lose 18 kilos each before the trip – in just two months – through diet alone.
The couple liked the healthy lifestyle and the visible results so much that they continued their journey after the trip. Both began to feel much better, they had more energy and enthusiasm to do everyday activities. Soon they added sports to their lives. They had tried going to the gym before, but quickly gave up. This time, however, the noticeable change in their appearance gave them the motivation to keep working on themselves.
